A late Christmas gift for me?)

From the article:

inspections showed the vessel had deteriorated and corroded during its 15 months underwater.

No....you deserve to have a nice, modern sub in perfect condition  :-)

re: Sunken Soviet sub

Sunken Civ, I thought of you when I saw this title. Not that it fits within any of your cool ping lists, it just sounds close to your login name.

Merry Christmas

So it was once used as a restaurant? Sounds like a great concept,

“A former Soviet cruise missile submarine that was once featured in a Hollywood film...”

I believe the Golf and Hotel classes were not “cruise missile” but Ballistic missile subs.

including one from an Australian group that wanted to sink it and use it as a reef, but no serious offers.

I'm sure they were serious when they made the offer.
